Absolutely. I thought Jamie really played well. He had the two interceptions which we just can't have, but Jamie all day long gave us a chance to win the game. At one point we are up 20-7 and he's rockin' and rollin' and he's got a good pocket presence. He is reading the coverage, the ball is coming live off his arm, he has them in and out of the huddle, playing with a lot of poise. He'll be our starter. I'm really proud of him but he has to cut back on the interceptions. |
All the moves we've made, we think are going to give us the best chance to win our next game. We brought up some of the young kids that worked hard and they deserve a chance. |
And it just so happens that I was put into the position of interim head coach, and everybody knows about it. |
By this afternoon, I was going to go see Christiaan Barnard in South Africa for a heart transplant. It's unbelievable. |
Do you want a drum roll? Yes. I think he gets better every day, he really does. |
Don't worry about me, I'm fine. We looked like grumpy old men. I tell you, it was a sore sight. |
He says he feels a lot better than a year ago with a similar injury. |
He was a great player in our league, and he's really been married to this organization his whole adult life. He's a great supporter of our players, of the organization. |
He's a fighter. He's fighting right now for his life, and he's not going to give up. He's going to go down kicking. Our thoughts and prayers are with him right now. |
He's a great supporter of our players, the organization - really a good guy. He's a fighter. He's fighting for his life. Our thoughts and prayers are with him right now. |
He's a heck of a player, a heck of a leader. We're going to miss him. It's a shame, it really is. |
He's a special guy, now we've got to see how he plays after a week's worth of preparation and somebody getting ready for him. |
He's a young kid that was a little leery. He just had surgery and had to get that thing punched a few times, and he did it. Good for him. |
He's been very, very productive for us. He's a versatile guy that can rush the passer, and for his size he can play the run fairly well. He's a pleasant surprise. |
He's going to be held accountable. I believe this in my heart: to holler, scream and demean and all those things does anybody no good. He knows he was wrong, he doesn't want to be wrong and he'll work hard to get better. |
